Biochemical composition and calorific value of zooplankton from northern part of Central Arabian Sea
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Average biomass value of zooplankton obtained was 22.69 ml 100 m-3. Average percentages of lipid, carbohydrate, protein and carbon were 6.3, 6.0, 23.6 and 34.62 respectively. Calorific values ranged between 6217 and 24708 ...
Living planktonic foraminifera of the Wadge bank, Northern Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1988)
Twenty three species of living planktonic Foraminifera belonging to 11 genera have been studied from the Wadge Bank area off southern tip of the Indian peninsula. The fauna is characterized by species such as Globigerinoides ...
Validity of zooplankton biomass estimates and energy equivalent in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1986)
Analysis of the published data on zooplankton biomass in the Indian Ocean reveals that due to omission of data from highly productive neritic Waters, the projected values of 519 x 10 6 tons become underestimated by 91 x ...
New mysids from the South Australian coastal waters: Paranchialina secunda sp. nov.; Leptomysis longisquama sp. nov. and Doxomysis johnsoni sp. nov.
(Cambridge University Press, 1986)
Three new species are described, Paranchialina secunda, Leptomysis longisquama and Doxomysis johnsoni from the coastal waters of South West Australia
Two new species of suctorians, Acineta satyanandani sp. nov. and Paracineta karunakarani sp. nov. epizoic on ostracods
(Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, 1986)
Two, species of protozoic suctorians, Acineta satyanandani sp. nov. and Paracineta karunakarani sp. nov., are described. These were found attached on the body of the marine ostracod, Cypridina dentata (Muller), collected ...
Secondary production and zooplankton abundance in the coastal waters from Vengurla to Malpe, west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Secondary production and zooplankton abundance in surface and vertical hauls at different stations along 7 transects from Vengurla to Malpe, Maharashtra, India were studied. Zooplankton production varied with the depth of ...
Concentration and toxicity of some metals in zooplankton from nearshore waters of Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1985)
Zooplankton samples collected from 4 stations located in the nearshore waters of Bombay were analysed for Cu, Co, Mn, Ni and Cd. Concentrations of Co, Mn and Ni were more in copepods and gelatinous organisms than in mysids ...
A note on chromosomes of Pontellopsis herdmani and Pontella princeps (Copepoda) from the Laccadive sea
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Pontellopsis herdmani and Pontella princeps (Pontellidae, Calanoida, Copepoda) showed a diploid number of 20 and a haploid number of 10 chromosomes during the spermatogonial metaphase and metaphase II stages. The chromosomes ...
Nannoplankton from the Bombay-Saurashtra continental shelf of India: An appraisal using cluster analysis
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1984)
Nannoplankton data from 28 stations in the northwestern continental shelf of India was subjected to Q-mode cluster analysis. Two biotopes A and B were identified. Although, Gephyrocapsa oceanica was by far, the most abundant ...
Diurnal variation of zooplankton in Malad creek, Bombay
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1984)
Variation in zooplankton biomass and composition in relation to the prevailing hydrographical conditions was studied for 24 h in Malad Creek, Bombay, Maharashtra, India, which was highly polluted by sewage. The adverse ...
